Why is this not called Walkipedia?

I consider this to be far more progress for humanity than landing on moon or sending a spaceship to outside of solar system. That's because this move is in the right direction, while others are not. As a human, you need to first master your habitat around you, before getting excited or concerned about things that happen in another country thousands of miles away.

I found out that a closed church I walk past regularly was called "St Chad's"

Related: OsmAnd has support for wikipedia-sourced points for the local offline maps. Not sure about the details though. Only related thing I found for an explanation is "Geospatial Wikidata Dataset", which is suspiciously fresh.

Very cool idea. Would be even better if it had an option to use a local language.

This is so cool, although I would like a feature to filter by subtopic or what the structures are used for (e.g. churches, bridges, museums).

Content that is curated by interested humans, without commercial interests, is so good.

Very cool. Obvious in hindsight with every location having coordinates.

Found an abbey around my place in Western Bavaria I didn't know existed
